'Twas the Friday before Christmas, I was just doing my job
Working on direct mail copy for my supervisor Bob
At the end of the day, I logged into Web Self-Service
I entered all my hours but then got a little nervous
When I checked direct deposits, I said, "That's just absurd!"
"How come I haven't been paid since December 3rd?"

All I want for Christmas is my two weeks' pay
My two weeks' pay, yeah, my two weeks' pay
You know, if I could only have my two weeks' pay
Then I could buy something nice for Christmas

It seems so long since I could afford
A 24-karat gold and diamond necklace (What a necklace!)
I'll have to check Zales, see if there's a big sale
My spending must not be reckless

All I want for Christmas is my two weeks' pay
My two weeks' pay, yeah, my two' weeks pay
You know, if I could only have my two weeks' pay
Then I could get my folks something for Christmas

I think that I should have a year-end bonus
For being the hardest-working first-year employee
But not getting even a 5% raise
Just really seems to annoy me

All I want for Christmas is my two weeks' pay
My two weeks' pay, yeah, my two' weeks pay
All I want for Christmas is my two weeks' pay
So I could buy my folks something for Christmas
It's only 4 days until Christmas

(Checks direct deposit again)
Oh, finally, I got my two weeks' worth of money!
I guess waiting a few extra days wasn't so bad after all!
